Basically more everything. 2x Cortex M33 cores with floating point, 520KB ram, more PIOs, bunch of secure boot stuff (I have mixed feelings about this), and can boot to a mode with risc-v cores instead of the M33s.

    The Pico never really took off, honestly. I doubt this thing is going to fly off the shelves or anything.

    I understand they want it to be a drop in replacement for the original Pico but I wish they upgraded the MicroUSB port to a USB-C port.

    I guess third party for me again.

      MicroUSB is absolutely one of the worst connectors ever designed, perhaps only surpassed by the SCART connector.

          They broke all the time and you had to wiggle them often because of shoddy connectivity.

            I don’t remember much problem with the connectivity with SCART. I do remember wasting many hours dealing with cheaply made cables that didn’t even wire all the pins however.

            Which come to think of it is now becoming an issue with USB-C cables. At least with SCART the connector could be easily opened for inspection, which became a habit of many an AV tech.

    How is this not considered spam?

    This is literally just an ad for a product. It even has the price in the title for crying out loud!

    And to top it off, it’s posted by an account that I’m pretty sure reported me for spam, because I posted a tech-philosophy essay where the site mentioned at the end that the essay was also published in a zine.

      Lol, and just immediately downvoted. Lemmy needs that essay more than I thought! Too easy to be reactive without accountability on this platform, sadly
